With yet another seam bowler sustaining a hamstring injury, the elation following Sri Lankas victory in Pallekele has become mild trepidation ahead of the second Test in Galle. For Nuwan Pradeep to play the second Test, he will require an extraordinary recovery. Having won a match after collapsing for 117 already this series, Sri Lanka are not expecting a second miracle in the space of a week.If Pradeep is out, the bowlers in triage can now be said to match the quality of the attack Sri Lanka will be forced to field for the second Test. Each of Sri Lankas three best quicks - including Dhammika Prasad and Dushmantha Chameera - will be unavailable, as well as Suranga Lakmal and legspinner Jeffrey Vandersay. Captain Angelo Mathews said the increased burden on Pradeep through the England tour, had probably led to the latest injury.Workload plays a huge role in their injuries, he said. If you talk to physio and trainer, they will say with the amount of cricket we play, workload management is important. We had to go with the same lot of fast bowlers for every game in England, and thats why, probably, they got injured.Now, were in the same situation as in the last match. Were waiting till tomorrow to get an opinion from the physio and trainer on Pradeep. If he doesnt play, we have Vishwa Fernando.Australia have also had to make an injury-forced change, flying in left-arm spinner Jon Holland, who is now a certainty to feature in Galle. Sri Lankas batsmen have, in the past, attempted to take advantage of such situations by attacking the new man in the opposition XI, but Mathews has advocated a more cautious approach.He looks a tall left-arm spinner who lands it on the spot, and to play Test cricket for Australia, hes got to be good, Mathews said. We dont have much video, but saw a bit and we know what to expect of him.In Test cricket, you cant go after a bowler the whole day. Youve got to play him on merit, take a look at him initially, and see what he has to offer. On these wickets, youve got to see what he bowls and what pace he bowls and how he turns the ball. Those things will give you a fair idea how to play him.Mathews admitted that Sri Lanka had thought about replacing one of their two misfiring openers from the Pallekele Test, with Dimuth Karunaratnes place under particular scrutiny. Sri Lankan surfaces have been tough on openers from every team over the past few years, however, with first-wicket stands averaging only 25.82 since January 2012. That figure is easily the lowest in all nations, save for Zimbabwe, which has seen substantially less cricket in that time.We had a chat with the selectors about the openers, and we just want to try and give the boys another opportunity, Mathews said. We want to keep the winning combination going. If at all we need any changes, we will do that, but as of now, were not thinking of any changes in the top order.Australia faltered against spin in Pallekele, but Mathews remained wary of the opposition top orders quality. Sri Lanka are set to field three spinners again, the dramatic turn of left-arm wrist-spinner Lakshan Sandakan to complement gentler, probing offerings from Rangana Herath and Dilruwan Perera.You cant write the Australians off against Herath, he said. They came up with a different strategy in the second innings, like using the crease a lot, and sweeping him a little bit. We have got to be cautious. They didnt get runs, but they are a very attacking top order and the guys who didnt get runs in Pallekele, we have to be cautious of. Its a tough place to play spin here. It will turn more than in Pallekele I reckon, but we still need to bowl in the right areas to take wickets. Alonzo Mourning Jersey . LOUIS -- Roman Polak was celebrating even before Alexander Steen scored the winning goal in Saturdays 4-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. Tim Hardaway Heat Jersey . The deal is pending a physical, assistant general manager Bobby Evans said. Traded from Seattle to Baltimore on Aug. 30, Morse also can play first base and right field to give manager Bruce Bochy some flexibility in writing his lineup. James Johnson Jersey .

West Coast AFL coach Adam Simpson says his decision to hand Shannon Hurn the captaincy two years ago was a no brainer that has reaped big rewards.Hurn will notch his 200th game when he lines up in Thursday nights elimination final against the Western Bulldogs at Domain Stadium.The 29-year-old was appointed skipper at the end of 2014 when Darren Glass retired and West Coast have since transformed themselves back into a premiership contender.The Eagles reached the grand final in Hurns first year at the helm and while they could only manage sixth place this year, they enter the finals in the hottest of form after beating GWS, Hawthorn and Adelaide in consecutive weeks.Hurn has been a strong contributor and Simpson says the South Australian was the perfect choice as captainn when the job came up two years ago.dddddddddddd.Well, he campaigned pretty hard in that pre-season in 2014, he joked on Monday.Its player vote as well as the coaches input.It was a bit of a no brainer in the end. The votes were pretty clear.To take over from someone like Darren Glass is a big void to fill. His leadership has been really important for our club.Hurn was quick to play down the significance of his milestone, saying West Coasts finals series was at the forefront of his thinking.But he said he was proud to join current and former teammates like Matt Priddis, Dean Cox, Glass, Daniel Kerr and Quinten Lynch in West Coasts 200 club.
